Because I got a note that i used a certain word in the 1st few lines
of my note & because ecartus thought this should be a list command, I
think my note may have gotten rejected. I'll try again. GMail does not
send one back one's list postings, so I never know.
This submitter has a tendency to submit books w/pages missing, junk
characters, will not join the volunteer list, & otherwise floods
bookshare's step 1 pages w/this stuff & makes herself unavailable to
requests for assistance to fix the books, or to offers of assistance
to help her improve her scanning. Having been thru this myself
personally, I know. & when I see she's scanned the material, even
though I'm a big Christian fiction buffaholic, I won't pick her stuff up &
validate it anymore because it's just too much trouble. Reject it!
Maybe if she gets enough of them she'll figure it out & start
submitting decent scans or quit. Then again, it doesn't seem to have
helped much thus far, so... I know that sounds harsh, yall, but it
just isn't right.
